Gravity causes a falling object to fall 9.8 m/s faster every second it falls.
Kenny's book started out with no speed when it was dropped.
1.5 sec later, it was falling at (9.8 x 1.5) = 14.7 m/s .
During the fall, its average speed was 1/2(0 + 14.7) = 7.35 m/s .
Distance it covered = (average speed) x (time) =
(7.35 m/s) x (1.5 sec) = 11.025 m
The velocity of the brick is 39.2 m/s downward
Explanation:
The motion of the brick is a free fall motion, since the object is affected only by the force of gravity. Therefore, it has a uniformly accelerated motion towards the ground, with constant acceleration of .
So, we can find its velocity using the suvat equation:
where
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
a is the acceleration
t is the time
For the brick in this problem (taking downward as positive direction)
u = 0 (it is dropped from rest)
Therefore, its velocity after t = 4.0 s is:
Downward, because the sign is positive.

If you think more specifically about energy,such as thermal energy,the amount of that energy a substance has is determined by the movement of the molecules.hope this helps u
Momentum=mass*velocity
=400kg*30m/s
=12000kg m/s
An advantage of sustainable energy is that it diversifies the energy supply and reduces importance on imported fuels.
A disadvantage is that all types of gaining access to sustainable energy requires a lot of space/ land. This may prevent important necessities such as housing to not have enough land. Hope this helps ;)
